6. Conclusion

On examining the translation of metaphor and the discussion of some of

the problems involved, I have realized that different methods of translation

are changeable rather than fixed, contingent rather than eternal. Whether

to use foreignizing or domesticating strategy depends on different factors

such as the importance and the contextual factors of the SL text, the consideration

of referential accuracy, the reader’s acceptability and the "pragmatic

economy" (Newmark, 1988b: 110). I believe there are special problems involved

in the translation of metaphor, but the theory of the translation of metaphor

is justifiable within the general theory of translation. To sum up, in

translation practice, there is no foreignization without some degree of

domestication, by the same token, there is no domestication without some

degree of foreignization.
